    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Interesting to see media reports surfacing around Starmer loyalists trying to make a deal with Burnham to head off a leadership challenge, especially given when this was discussed a couple of days ago the consensus seemed to be there was zero chance he would mount a bid.

    The Abbott stuff is disgusting. How are these people anywhere near government? Not the first time she's been the target of some pretty horrific treatment either.

    this isn't really the defence he thinks it is given everyone else in the country knew.

    Immigration and Asylum

    Great post. The problem runs far deeper than 'stop the boats'. You could stop every single boat and very little would actually change. We have zero plan for how to deal with ever increasing automation. We've ignored it until now and there's massive resistance to any attempt to change work...

    Charlie Kirk Shot

    There's people throwing around claims of 1m plus which is insane. If anyone can remember back to the Iraq protest that brought London to a standstill and took people hours to move anywhere.

    Embarrassing

    Not sure that's true tbh, at least not on here. Most people are open to a debate. Sure there's a couple of posters who try to derail it, along with pretty much every thread, but most people are up for a sensible debate. The biggest problems seems to be getting to grips with the differences...

    Embarrassing

    Yet the politics thread is full of people moaning about centrists dominating the political landscape

    Im no fan of Starmer or this government but what exactly are you reasonably expecting in the time they’ve had https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/cr4zzvq2p33t

    He walked from the corner to the centre circle then walked off the pitch, not sure I'd class that as a serious injury. If he can walk off the pitch to be subbed he can walk off the pitch to get treatment. Again my question would be why is football the only sport where the officials have this...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I get what you're saying but is that counter productive? Kind of feels like saying being a bit racist is fine as long as you mainly keep it to yourself and just put a tick in the box for Reform and hang a flag off the nearest lamppost, not to say that all reform voters and / or flag flyers are...

    Stadium update

    It was one of the supporters forum meetings he said it at I think. It's definitely been reported that he said it.

    Fake shirts

    You can spot them a mile off, they're so bad. I'd be embarrassed to wear it to a game tbh. If they have genuinely released promo photos that look a different colour to fuck up the fakes it's a genius move.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Think this illustrates a huge problem with even starting to have a serious debate on the subject. Whenever there are surveys on this they consistently show that peoples perception of the numbers is way out. You could stop every single boat tomorrow and it wouldn't even scratch the surface of the...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Wasn't specific to anywhere, more a general thought. There seems to be a decent number of people in the country who take huge offence to being labelled a racist while repeating things that would meet most definitions of racism. Just a thought.

    Timewasting

    I don't get why people think refs in football aren't able to cope with this yet it's not even a consideration for refs in other sports. Other sports just play on unless its deemed a serious injury. We can all tell from the stands from players reactions alone when something is serious but the...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    I'm not sure that every single person there can be labelled a racist, I think that's a huge stretch. But I am starting to wonder if we need to educate people on what racism is. I remember a few years back there was an ad campaign aimed at young guys going on a night out to not sexually harass /...

    12 year old raped in nuneaton

    This is AI surely. Nobody can be that dumb. Spend years campaigning against immigrants and then act all surprised that racists feel emboldened.
